Free Blackberry Apps for Moms - Fresh Gift Idea for Mother's Day, Useful Throughout the Year

While a bouquet of flowers would be nice to give your Mom on Mother’s Day as a symbol of your appreciation for all the love that she showered you since you were young, why not add a little extra by also giving her something that's altogether out-of-the-box, techie and useful?

If your Mom is a BlackBerry® smartphone user, BlackBerry App World™ is your best bet to find a broad mix of mobile applications designed to make her life easier and even encourage her to have fun. No matter what her interests are, you can find applications that can help her with her daily needs.

The following free BB Apps should prove useful, not just on Mother's Day but the whole year long, for this amazing superhero who taught us our first lessons on love, kindness, and the millions of practical things that have carried us through so far:

Moms love keeping pace with her family’s interests. Viigo for BlackBerry will help Mom keep tabs with what her family is into and what she is into herself. Whether it’s the latest stock market update for her husband, the results of the NBA play-offs for Junior, the best fashion trends for her unica hija, or impressive recipes from Kumareng Martha Stewart, information is delivered quickly, efficiently, and intuitively in a format specially designed for BlackBerry.

All she has to do is specify to Viigo what she is interested in and Viigo will take care of the rest. It’ll keep her up to date, so information is available immediately, wherever she is and whenever she needs it. No waiting for the browser to load, no typing URLs.

Road safety with BlackBerry

Even Moms can sometimes be tempted to use their BlackBerry while driving. Keep her hands on the wheel and her eyes on the road with DriveSafe.ly, an application that reads her text messages and e-mails out loud automatically or on demand. Additional features include customizing auto-responses and timeout durations. DriveSafe.ly helps Mom stay connected without her texting or reading e-mails while driving.

Carrying the family in her heart … and in her BlackBerry

With iGallery, Mom can turn her BlackBerry into a digital photo frame so she can see the photos of her whole family in a slide show. Features include automatic photo slide, customizable play period, and password support.

Convenient grocery shopping

Moms, with the use of OurGroceries, can tap the rest of the family to help her with grocery shopping.
